Nigel Reo-Coker thinks the West Ham treasure This summer, Manchester United ought to be targeting players like Lucas Paqueta.

After a failed transfer to Manchester City the previous season, Paqueta has excelled for the Irons once more this season.

The Brazilian is still said to be moving to the Etihad Stadium, but Reo-Coker thinks Man United ought to try to snag a deal.

He stated, “We talk about the players Man United have got rid of,” on The Friday Football Social [April 12, 7:58 p.m.] on BBC Radio 5 Live.

There are players out there that they could sign and then develop with some younger players if they had a strategy and a direction.

Paqueta at West Ham is another one out there. He’s one of the few players in the current game who, in my opinion, can fit into any squad and is a future winner of the Ballon d’Or.

Duration of Lucas Paqueta’s contract at West Ham United

It’s possible that Paqueta’s value to West Ham has been demonstrated more by his absences from games than by his appearances.

The 26-year-old has been an excellent addition to the Irons, and the team won’t want to let him go at the end of the current season. He still has three years left on his deal, with an additional year’s option.

But if Man City makes a huge offer, they might be obliged to play, much as with Declan Rice to Arsenal last summer.

Lucas Paqueta, a star player for West Ham United, has frequently lit up the London Stadium.
Paqueta is about more than simply direct goal involvements; in 25 Premier League appearances this season, he has four goals and six assists.

He would undoubtedly strengthen Man United’s starting lineup, but in many respects, it would be a step backward for him.

It’s unlikely that the rumors of a move to Man City will end, but let’s hope the team holds onto the incredibly gifted attacker.
